Larry Kelly, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Miami, said the strong winds that will follow the cold front could push wind chill temperatures near Lake Okeechobee into the 30s early Monday morning.

Wind chill temperatures along the coast Monday morning should dip into the 40s and 50s, Kelly said.

“That will be the coldest temps we see,” Kelly said. “It’s going to be chill in South Florida Monday morning.”

The cool front that passed through Wednesday night brought showers to parts of North Palm Beach County. Temperatures today in West Palm Beach are expected to reach near 80 degrees, which is still 5 degrees above normal.
